flexibility, and speed
NEW
YORK and FAIRFAX,
Va., Sept. 21, 2022 /CNW/ - CGI (TSX:
GIB.A) (NYSE: GIB), one of the largest independent IT and business
consulting services firms in the world and UiPath (NYSE: PATH), a
leading enterprise automation software company, today
announced an enhanced partnership designed to expand automation
deployments among CGI clients via managed services.
Through this new strategic relationship, UiPath and CGI will
help clients implement enterprise automation across industry
verticals and focus on desired business outcomes. The new
Automation-as-a-Service offering from CGI, called CGI Accel360,
enables clients to rapidly onboard and engage with automation via a
subscription model, while CGI manages licensing, automation
development, and other support. Clients benefit from CGI's
industry-based accelerator library of automations that are
purpose-built to help deliver business outcomes and accelerate
time-to-value. Additionally, a managed service model relieves the
upfront costs, resource constraints, and technology integration
concerns.
"The partnership with UiPath enhances our AI and automation
capabilities, allowing our clients to prioritize their most
important business objectives while CGI designs, nurtures, and
supports how they modernize through automation," said Steve Starace, Senior Vice-President of CGI's
U.S. East operations. "We will deliver CGI Accel360 to enterprises
that are seeking to adopt and scale automation with greater ease
and fewer barriers to entry, while also improving their customer
and employee experience."
Through CGI Accel360, CGI harnesses its industry expertise in
aligning agile IT with business priorities alongside the end-to-end
UiPath Business Automation Platform to help clients achieve greater
success with digitization. UiPath and CGI are also investing in
training and upskilling resources to maximize the impact of
automation initiatives.
"Businesses want to concentrate on serving customer needs,
accelerating time to market for their products, and modernizing
their technology stack. Enterprise automation saves them money and
time so that they can solve for these challenges with speed and
flexibility," said Jay Snyder,
Senior Vice President and Global Head of Customer Success and
Partners at UiPath. "As a longtime partner, CGI understands the
success factors critical to automation initiatives, from framework
to execution to scaling. Its new automation managed services will
allow more companies to benefit from transforming their operations
with an automation-first strategy."
